IRS Letter Addresses Readily Available Test When Bus Company Does Not Accept Debit Cards
Information Letter 2016-0007 (Mar. 3, 2016)
Available at https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-wd/16-0007.pdf
In this information letter, the IRS addresses whether an employer can reimburse transit expenses when the transit provider refuses to accept employer-provided debit cards as payment. As background, Code § 132(f) allows employers to provide employees with certain transportation benefits, including transit passes, on a tax-free basis. However, cash reimbursement for transit passes is not allowed if a voucher or similar item that can only be exchanged for a transit pass is "readily available" for distribution to employees. Beginning in 2016, that restriction applies if the voucher is a terminal-restricted debit card—i.e., a debit card that can only be used at transit terminals that sell only fare media (see our Checkpoint article). According to the letter, other types of debit cards may also qualify as vouchers that preclude cash reimbursement of transit expenses if the cards can only be used to purchase fare media. In the situation described in the letter, the employer stopped providing cash reimbursement for bus tickets because it made a debit card available for employees' transit expenses. One bus company, however, only accepts cash or checks, prompting an employee to ask whether his employer really is prohibited from making cash reimbursements.
In response to the employee's question, the IRS explains that whether the employer can reimburse employees in cash for their bus tickets depends on the readily available test. The bus company's unwillingness to accept debit card payments does not, by itself, cause the bus tickets to fail the test. For example, the IRS suggested that the employer could purchase ticket books from the bus company for direct distribution to employees. But if other restrictions make the ticket books not readily available, then the employer would be permitted to provide cash reimbursement.
EBIA Comment: Certain nonfinancial restrictions can cause the readily available test to be failed—e.g., unreasonable advance purchase requirements; unreasonable purchase quantity requirements; and inappropriate denomination requirements. But a requirement that payment be in the form of a check or cash is apparently not sufficient to make vouchers unavailable and allow cash reimbursements. If an employer cannot offer cash reimbursements for a particular transit provider, and more convenient vouchers like debit cards cannot be used, the employer may need to make a difficult decision: deal with the practical challenges of distributing the available vouchers for that provider, or refuse to pay benefits for that provider because the administrative burdens of dealing with the available vouchers outweigh the value of the transit benefit. If the employer takes the latter approach and some transit providers are not covered by plan design, it will be especially important for the employer to identify which transit providers are covered and which are not. For more information, see EBIA's Fringe Benefits manual at Sections XX.E.5 ("No Cash Reimbursement Unless Special Rules (Such as Readily Available Test) Are Met; Consequently, Some Employers Don't Offer Transit Passes at All") and XX.Q.12 ("Can Electronic Payment Cards Be Used to Expedite Claims Processing for Qualified Transportation Plans?").

Con shall argue against the position that age should factor into whether or not one might be a worthy opponent within the range of a reasonable debate.
Pro shall argue for argument stated above.
Definition: Age-The period of time one has lived.
Definition: Reasonable-Having sound judgement;Fair or sensible.
Round 1:Acceptance of Definitions, Thesis
Round 2:Arguement
Round 3:Rebuttal
Round 4:Conclusion
Round 5:Explanation of Victory
To begin properly, a question must be introduced. Why should society be structured in a way to reduce the assumed intelligence of one being based soley on age? A simple answer is due, it should not. Many young minds are capable of keeping up with, and, occasionally, surpassing the intelligence of older individuals due to being more open minded on certain topics. This idea does exclude infants and toddlers, due to the incapability to grasp ideas and hold on to them for extended periods of time. Should it be that an individual should be discriminated against based on the fact that such a being of such low age could have any plausible thing to say? Age is nothing but a number. A worthy opponent in such fields as philosophy and fiction are not determind based upon such an idea, so why should polotics and economics have it any different. To reduce intellect based on age is to reduce an individual to something far less than human.
I firstly want to point out that Con's thesis is angled in a way that assumes my thesis will make age the sole or even primary factor in sizing up an opponent's intelligence, this is not the case.
I merely think that a genius 3 year old and a genius 16 year old stand 2 completely different probabilities of being intelligent enough to beat me in debate. You see when it comes to debating, experience is hugely linked to how one can represent how intelligent they are, per se. Einstein would struggle to 'debate' his theories at a younger age but wouldn't struggle to prove them mathematically at any age. At an older age he's both have gained the capability to use his intelligent and articulate manner (by hearing and saying what sounds good and what doesn't and learning both the hard and easy way over his life).
There is no coincidence in that all successful politicians in debates are of an elder age to the rest. I am not saying that older means better at all but rather that one's potential in debating becomes better wiht experience up to the point where aging has gone so far that mental deficiency, such as Alzheimer's becomes apparent.
Best of luck on this debate, Con.
-I in no way would like associate the factor of age as the main factor in determining whether one's self is able to create an arguement, but, for the sake of this arguement, I would like to bring this variable to light. I do understand that many other things contribute to how well one can convey an arguement, one of the main contributers being who the being was raised by and how well that person treated and acted towards the individual in question. I am also refering to society as a collective whole, not just a certain group of intellectuals deciding upon it. I am not argueing whether the person in question has schitzophrenia or whether this person has seen battle. Instead I would like to focus on the matter of age itself. I would also like to excluse your example of "a genius 3 year old" out of this debate to to my perviously saying I would prefer to exclude infants and toddlers due to their young age, and the vast expanse of meanings associated with genius. Instead, I would like to focus on older individuals ranging from 8 and up, if you would accept that premise. And, as you refered to many more succesful politicians being those of a much longer life than the majority, I would like to save that for another debate, due to effects such as where that person originated form and what popular media has to say about those individuals.
Presenting one's intelligence in correlation to their age has become much more common due to certain public services, primarily being education, and has had an effect on the newer generations. I would consider this effect to be negative as it has reduced the ability of certain individuals such as teachers and caretakers to fully understand younger individuals(I do associate this conclusion with bias due to my experiences as an child with a talent for learning). This effect has restricted many pathways and has significantly reduced the number of opportunities I have had available due to the thought that I would not have anything useful to say. This gap has only increased, caused by newer programs such as Common Core being introduced into public education.
Older individuals who have not been introduced into these unfamiliar scenes vote on whether reforms should be made. These actions are not made with the consent of the people("people" refering to the younger masses), but are still "justified" based on the fact that the body primarily being affected is that of those who have no say due to their age. With certain restrictions such as these it is much harder for younger indivduals to express thoughts as they are not brought into a society in which this is not only requested, but commanded of them. I am not saying that every baby has the capability to lead a nation or tip the balance of the world, but I would like to point out that every shild has the ability to think critically.
On the basis that a child is brought up to thrink critically (About not only his actions, but every action made visible to him and the effects of these actions), construct ideas, and listen to others ideas do I believe someone is able to pose some sort of threat in a debate, regardless of age.

Every day, I tell myself that 2016 is the year that my life will change.
I know I have the power to do this with my own two hands, and after four months of wandering around and trying virtually everything under the sun to transform my career and build my confidence, I've seen important, incremental improvements in my life showing that my own little world is changing for the better.
At first, I thought that in order to design a better life for myself, I just needed to incorporate a few good habits to get myself there. But as I started going through the motions, I realized that in order for me to really go places and see bigger results, I had to let go of my bad habits, too.
Just like that famous Elizabeth Gilbert quote says: there comes a day when we have to recognize and deal with our own bullshit if we want our lives to undergo a major transformation.
Even with the progress that I've made, I'm still not happy with where my life is today.
I don't like where I live and my career is a far cry from where I want it to be. I don't date these days, but I would if I felt like I had my shit together. I'm in decent shape, but it's not my best.
If you were speaking to an angrier, more stressed and bitter version of myself four months ago, I could probably find anyone and anything to blame for these things. But some time to rest and reflect has forced me to accept that my fate is ultimately up to me.
Every dollar lost or dollar earned is a result of the work that I put in, and in whom I choose to do business with. Every bit of knowledge or skill that I have or don't have is a result of the time and care I put into educating myself. Every heartbreak and every fulfilling, loving relationship I take part in is a result of who I decide to let into my personal space and how I decide to interact with them. And every fitness milestone that I succeed or fail at is an effect of how disciplined I am in sticking to my goals and whether or not I take my own self-care seriously.
It's really that simple. Every little part of our lives that we put up with—or that we're able to enjoy and be proud of—is a manifestation of the little decisions that we make for ourselves each day. Sure, it's daunting to accept responsibility for everything that goes wrong in our lives. But it's really gratifying and empowering when we understand that we're able to create our own fulfilling and extraordinary destinies, too.
This realization is what keeps motivated in following through on the changes I want for my life each day. My efforts are building some promising results. After weeks of burying myself in books and blog posts, film screenings and networking events, I've got new reporting projects in the works about the very country that I plan to relocate to at a respected, international news outlet. For the first time in years, I'm working out regularly and it shows. I'm not ready to date yet but I've slowly let new friends in the mix and I'm eager to see how our friendships grow over time. Plus, I've signed up for some language classes and listening to Spanish podcasts for hours every day is building my comprehension.
Sometimes I get overwhelmed. Sometimes I feel hopeless. Sometimes I squander my time and calories on things that I shouldn't be fooling around with. There are times when I could do a better job of managing my anxiety about the future so I can be more polite and inviting towards the people around me.
But I write everyday—whether it's for pleasure, for work, or simply to track my goals and how I use my time—because it forces me to own up to my bullshit and to keep my eyes locked forward. It's easy to look around and chalk up our misfortunes and discontent to evil forces around us, but what we do and how we carry ourselves are the only things that matter.
I don't know exactly what life will bring me next, but I'm preparing for the good with every ounce of grit that I've still got left.
Mark my words: this is the year that I will become the baddest bitch you have ever met.

911 calls: It seems we may be a bit confused as to what they're about. In Chicago a woman called 911 when her husband butt-dialed her and she thought he'd been taken hostage; another woman dialed 911 to try to get her boyfriend to propose. In Florida a woman dialed 911 (several times) when her manicure didn't come out the way she wanted. And in New York we are doing it wrong, too.
The New York Post rounds up the ridiculous calls put in to 911 during the blizzard and its aftermath. Among them:
• A guy in Brooklyn claimed he was having trouble breathing, but he really just wanted an ambulance to take him to his methadone clinic.
• Brooklyn parents called 911 about their "sick kid" — they really just wanted someone to get him to do his homework.
• A guy in the Bronx called with stomach problems after eating a pizza with the works.
• A Brooklyn mom called about her daughter's cut lip.
• "Another caller stubbed his toe and told EMTs 'it's been hurting for over an hour.'"
• Yet another Brooklyn caller could only breathe out of one nostril!
This is not good for our street-cred, folks. A friendly reminder: 911 is not your therapist, nor your taxi service, nor your mom. NYC.gov has this question you should ask yourself when in doubt:
When should you call 911?
When there is an emergency, lives are in danger, serious injury, serious medical condition, crime in progress, or any other situation needing immediate attention
Please, use [good] discretion. If you just want to complain about something, call 311. Or email us!

Have you ever tried to teach yourself something new?
That's what I'm doing now. I'm trying to teach myself PHP. For those of you that have no idea what that is, join the club.
Seriously, PHP, means PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor and is an HTML-embedded scripting language. And yes, I got this from another site, PHP: General Information Manual. After all, you really didn't expect me to know that right off the top of my head did you?
Now that we have that out of the way, let me try to explain as best as I can what that says and since I have no idea what I'm doing, I'll probably get it wrong. PHP is a supposedly simple way to use a database to run a website. For example, all these forums that are such a big hit are all run using the PHP language.
Now, I'll be the first to admit that I might not be the brightest light bulb in a box, but I'm by no means the dimmest. But this stuff makes me feel like an absolute idiot. With some help from a few wonderful friends, I've managed to teach myself html, how to take apart and put back together computers, find almost anything I want on the internet and a few other things. I have people trying to help me do this as well, but it seems like it's going right over my head. If I was trying to swim, I would definitely be drowning!!!!!
I love learning new things and figured this would be no different, boy was I ever wrong.
I figure by now, you're asking yourself why I want to learn this when it's giving me such a hard time. The reason is actually pretty simple, I want to build a website that is run like a forum, only it will be slightly different. People will be able to come post on this site, hopefully, if I ever get it finished, which is why I need PHP to run it. Plain html just won't do it. Believe me, if it would, I wouldn't be sitting here bald from pulling my hair out from trying to learn this.
I've done all kinds of research on this. I've checked html, JavaScript, and PHP. PHP is the only website language that will function like I want.
I'm supposed to be studying php right now, but decided to come here instead and let you know that I'M GOING CRAZY from trying to learn it.
No, this isn't a cry for help from anyone, just a chance to fuss about what a headache I'm getting. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would have this hard of a time learning this. I mean, after all, I've taught myself a lot of other things. What makes PHP so different? It's not like it's brain surgery or being a rocket scienctist.
Oh well, I guess I've ranted enough for tonight. I really need to get back to PHP for DUMMIES. I'm determined to learn this and I promise not to kill anyone just because I've lost my mind because I can't understand this stuff. I'm not that far gone yet, just getting there.
I hope you have a great weekend and God Bless.

OHHHH, The Joy of Helping People
I have a friend, who, for the most part, I don't mind helping. He's a nice guy, just young. He's always asking for help. I forget what I was like at that age. hahaha After all, it's only been 22 years for me. Anyway, I helped him set up his blog today. While I think blogger.com has a great service, it can be frustrating getting every little thing correct so it will work perfectly. Between the two of us, we finally have it done. I guess things could be worse, I could have no friends to help.
Here is another friend that I want to help. He just got married and has decided to start his own business with his wife. His site is CGF Creations Miami Website Design. If you need hosting or a new site, this is the person to contact. I've been watching him do this for years now. I can guarantee you won't be disappointed in his work.
I hope you have a great day.

In Case You Haven't noticed.....
I'm as pro-military as they come. I've seen some of the things these brave men and women have given for us all. It is never an all or nothing situation. Each and every person that has served in the military has given something. I'm reminded of that every time I try to take for granted the freedom I enjoy today. They have given blood, sweat and tears, and some even have given the ultimate sacrifice, there lives. If you know someone that has served in the military, please shake their hand for me and say "Thank you." If you get a chance, please go to this page and read it. I promise you won't be disappointed. It's a great story.
Passing of a Generation
I hope you have a great day and God Bless.

text: Its funny... I keep thinking WTF YT is doing that? It makes blackhatters too easy to get to the top of the search page. The ranking emphasize more on audience retention. View, like, and sub also count. We all know that. But here's the flaw in this system -- YT counts audience retention according to view time. You can just create a landing video of just 30 seconds. And you pump in 100s of 1000s of 30-second views from suppliers. That will give you almost 100% audience retention. BTW, the landing video is just like landing page where there are links to other longer videos. Want like and sub without affecting the audience retention? At the beginning and the end of the video, just tell the viewers that they can get freebies if they like and sub. What do you think abt it? Does it work? I'm almost 100% sure! TheTaoMan

In Oklahoma, many parents want to make certain their children who are disabled will be able to have their needs taken care of when they are adults without interfering with their children's ability to continue receiving federal and state benefits. A special needs trust is a legal vehicle by which parents can provide funds designated to take care of certain expenses that would otherwise not be covered through SSI or Medicaid and Medicare benefits.
Like other states, Oklahoma law specifically outlines what categories of expenses can be designated for spending by a special needs trust without interfering with benefits. Examples of allowable categories include transportation costs, the cost of in-home health aides, education and rehabilitation costs, the cost of computer equipment and non-covered medical and dental care and treatment.
Each special needs trust has a trustee that pays the needed expenses out of the trust account set up on the beneficiary's behalf. Setting up a special needs trust correctly can be complicated and in order to protect the availability of benefits, it is important a trust is set up and administered correctly.
Many people have children with special needs who will be unable to live without assistance as adults. By establishing these types of trusts for them, parents can have some assurance that their children's needs will be met into adulthood even after the parents are no longer able to help them. For that reason, many people with special needs children may wish to discuss their child's situation who has experience in estate planning matters. The attorney can provide guidance to the client as to the specific language that should be included in the trust document.

- Knowledge of social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram
Community Need
Specific community need that the Philly Fellow will address:
Already the poorest big city in America, Philadelphia also has the highest rate of deep poverty of the nation's ten most populous cities. Only 20 percent of low-income Philadelphians are able to obtain a free civil legal aid attorney because the programs are understaffed, underfunded, and unable to meet escalating client demand. The Philadelphia public interest law community is a collaborative network of over 30 nonprofit agencies joined in their missions to further the interests of the most disadvantaged and vulnerable segments of our populations facing poverty, discrimination and injustice. Better and more strategic communication of our collective and individual missions will help to increase awareness of the work of civil legal aid. In turn, bolstering resources will directly affect and increase the service capacity so that the legal needs of our citizens are being met. The Support Center for Child Advocates (Child Advocates) provides legal and social services advocacy to victims of child abuse and neglect. Of the 1,000 children that we are now serving each year, approximately 95% of them receive multiple government entitlements due to their low-income status, with many falling below the federal poverty level. Child Advocates is a member of the Philadelphia Bar Association's Delivery of Legal Services Committee (DLSC), which consists of a wide cross section of leaders from the public interest legal community who come together regularly in an effort to identify, and provide for, the civil legal needs of the most underserved members of the Philadelphia community by creating and expanding free legal services for the poor; improving the quality of those services; developing and providing continuing legal education for public interest lawyers; sharing and expanding the collective knowledge of experts in various areas of public interest law; raising public awareness of legal and social issues affecting the poor and disadvantaged; and leveraging the work of public interest law firms by forging partnerships with the private bar to expand the delivery of free legal services to those in need.
How the new capacity created by this fellow will help strengthen the community and alleviate the problem:
We have developed a multi-faceted communications project for a Philly Fellow to advance Child Advocates' fundamental objective of improving the lives of the poor children we serve and their families. First, the Fellow will be responsible for assessing the impact of Child Advocates' existing communications plan, identifying and utilizing data analyses, survey tools, and other measures to determine if our brand and our messages are effective and generate the desired return on investment (ROI). Second, s/he will measure the impact of Child Advocates' various projects on our clients and develop a strategy for targeting messages about our projects that will motivate our audiences to action, namely funding support and volunteerism. Third, leveraging the data analysis of Child Advocates' communication, the Fellow will work with DLSC to develop and implement a "collective message" and strategic communications plan to educate the public about how legal aid is an essential force in combating poverty. The Fellow will develop collaborative materials to inform the public about how legal aid improves the social and economic wellbeing of the city's poorest residents and communities; assist DLSC members with connecting to the media; and implement additional strategies for delivering the collective message. The Fellow will connect with existing resources, such as the National Voices for Civil Justice, and work with DLSC members to improve perceptions of legal aid and generate interest among lawyers to participate in pro bono services. In coordination with the Association and its Public Interest Section, DLSC member organizations provide high quality free civil legal representation, advocate for systemic changes to reduce poverty and inequality, and work to shape a humane and safe society characterized by opportunity, financial stability, self-determination, liberty, and justice for all.
Level of community involvement in the fellow's project:
The Fellow will be active within the local legal aid community. In the first months of the fellowship, s/he will connect with leadership and/or communications staff of the DLSC member agencies to become familiar with the current communication efforts of the various organizations. The Fellow will also have the opportunity to engage the community when ascertaining the impact of messages upon various audiences. Surveys, focus groups and one-on-one meetings with various stakeholders will be crucial tools for analyzing the efficacy of our communications strategy.
The organization's experience operating anti-poverty programming of this nature:
Child Advocates' success in fundraising, volunteer recruitment and reputation rests on its ability to increase visibility, raise awareness and educate audiences through branding, marketing and public relations. In 2007, the agency underwent an extensive re-branding process resulting in a new logo, tagline and brand identity that is in place today. Over the years, Child Advocates has improved and increased press relations, publishing numerous op-eds on current events, staff and Board profiles, event highlights and more. The agency incorporated social media into its communications plan in 2009 and continues to develop new strategies to leverage various social media platforms, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram. We invested in a half-time position of Communications Associate to manage our online presence. In 2013, Child Advocates upgraded our website and moved to a WordPress platform to allow staff to manage and update our site in real time. Child Advocates Board of Directors included public and media relations, as well as brand management, in the current long-range plan Vision 2020.
Fellowship Logistics
Fellow orientation plan:
Child Advocates will provide orientation for the Fellow as any other staff member, ensuring all necessary paperwork is in place, including child abuse clearances, and that a work station is set up (logins, email, etc.). On Day One, the supervisor will introduce the Fellow to the staff, policies and organizational structure, as well as discuss the job responsibilities and project goals. The Fellow will receive Vicarious Trauma training and will be expected to attend a full day of training, "How to Handle a Child Abuse Case," at the next scheduled workshop to gain exposure to the issues and needs of Child Advocates clients and volunteers. The Fellow will also receive similar orientation and training by the Public Interest Coordinator at the Philadelphia Bar Association.
Name and title of the fellow's immediate supervisor: Moira Mulroney; Director of Development & Communications
Plans for supervision of the fellow:
Moira Mulroney, Esq., Child Advocates Director of Development & Communications, will be the Fellow's primary supervisor. In the first six months, there will be weekly supervision meetings, and bi-weekly for the remaining six months, with face-to-face interaction on all days the Fellow is onsite at Child Advocates.

Spiritual Counseling Program Article on Spirituality and Addiction
Good article on how spirituality can help fill so many voids that are usually fulfilled with substance abuse or other addictions of the mind or body.
Please also review our Spiritual Counseling Program and see if it matches your academic and professional needs.
The article, "Filling the Spiritual Void with Sex, Money and Intoxicants" by Monique Hassan states,
"That void within, reaching out for something to fill it. Darkness and questions surrounding it, perhaps it can be filled with partying? Intoxicants? Money? Sex? Career?
Those don't seem to work, the void is still present, unable to see it yet it is felt. Many try to ignore it and go about their days, not paying attention to that subconscious alarm. A lingering dark hole that sits nestled within our soul waiting for light to shine upon it and fill it with spirituality. Too many of us experience this without realizing it might be our inner self, our most true self, crying out for the embrace of our spirituality and faith."

Time is ticking away...
It was really nice game but ooo sooo tense. When Drogba scored the winning goals, the bar was going crazy. People throwing their plastic cups in the air, jumping and screaming all over the place. It was insane, a really nice experience! The sports bar was: Legends at Football Factory. A big sports bar on 33rd street between 5th and 6th avenue.
Afterwards I went for take out and ate it in bryant park. The weather was beautiful that day, so it was really nice to hang out there. I also Skyped my parents from there and made them really jealous. I didn't spend the night in the city as I was tired as hell, so I headed back to Cold Spring around 8pm.
Another cool week and weekend has come to an end here. There are less than two weeks left here in Cold Spring, so the time is ticking away here! I'll be back in Belgium in the beginning of June!
Thanks again to all the people who keep reading my blog! Stay tuned and best of luck studying for your exams!

The one with all the Belgians
On monday we had a 5(!) hour meeting scheduled with K-Bear. A varied meeting in which we discussed lot's of important topics on the Go-To-Market Strategy. The meeting was interrupted by a former Intern from Denmark came by to say visit MKTworks. His name is Jacob and he was an intern here in 2010. It was really nice to hear how he did his internship.
On Tuesday Marshall was caught up in meetings in the Manhattan, while Marc and Me headed down to our weekly meeting with B&B Pools and Spa. Afterwards we headed back to the office to finalize a first draft of my management report, which was due the next day.
Doc Rick wasn't back yet from his trip to the mediterranean, so there was only one radio scheduled for wednesday. As I had to finish up my report, Marshall dropped me off at the office and drove to Poughkeepsie to host the radio-show. In the afternoon we had two meeting scheduled. A first meeting was a lunch meeting with the guys hosting the Facebook page for B&B Pools and Spa. We had lunch in a Chinese restaurant and it was really good food they served. Afterwards we had another meeting in Ramsey, NJ with a contractor/ architect who helped design that kick-ass pool I was talking about in one of my previous blogposts.
On thursday we went to Beacon to see the grandson of Ron competing in a running game. It was a running competition amongst juniors with other schools in the area. Here are some pictures from that same evening. The first pictures was the running game. The second pictures is the picture covering the mailbox at the office with my name on it. When driving back home I also shot a beautiful picture of the sky that day, wonderful don't you think?
For the weekend I had plans to attend 'Belgian Nights Volume 4', organized by the Belgian American Chamber of Commerce (BELCHAM) in the RdV lounge in Meat packing district.
It was a nice sunshiny day on saturday and a nice warm temperature. When I arrived in the city around 2pm, I had barely anything to eat. My plan was to have lunch in 'White Castle', famous from the movie 'Harold and Kumar: Go To White Castle'. The sliders weren't that good but the fries were ok. Here's a picture of my lunch.
Afterwards I wandered around in the city looking for some cool things to do. Apparently there was a movie shooting on 5th avenue with Ben Stiller in it. The movie is called: 'the secret life of Walter Mitty' I didn't see Ben Stiller, but I did saw some stunts being performed: crashing cars, chase scene. Here are some picture I've shot from the surroundings.
I freshened up a little for the party and took the subway downtown to Meat Packing District where I grabbed a bit to eat and to wait for Alexandre and Alexandre to join me to the party. The party began at 9pm and starting from that moment there was free Stella Artois, Duvel and Palm. So it was a great party. It turned out even greater as a friend of mine studying in New York attended the same party. It was really nice catching up with him and meeting his friends. They are doing a One-year Masters program in which they study in three countries in three different continents: Belgium, India and the U.S. This is probably going to be the option for my Master degree. We'll see.
I took the train back to Cold Spring at 1pm and spent the rest of the day cleaning my apartment, writing my thesis and watching a tv-show.
Stay tuned for some more stories!

Ninth (!) week already...
The week started of with a very interesting meeting with the executive team from K-Bear. As I started writing my management report, I fully participated in the meeting to get as much information out of this as possible. We also scheduled a meeting with them for tuesday afternoon.
It has also been quite some time we met with the guys from b&b pools, so we went to Chestnut ridge on tuesday. In the afternoon we had another meeting scheduled with K-Bear where we worked on mapping the results of the WOTS-UP analysis to the Marketing mix (price, place, product and promotion).
Wednesday is normally radio day, but as Doc Rick is cruising the mediterranean for two weeks, Marshall had to do it by himself. He dropped my off at the office and drove to Poughkeepsie to host an interview with a raw-food specialist in California. The rest of the day we spent at the office working both on my management report and office stuff. In the evening Marshall took me to a delicious italian restaurant on Main Street: Cathryn's Tuscan Grill where I had a delicious linguini seafood platter.
Thursday was a quiet day at the office, which gave me plenty of time to work on my notes for K-Bear and try integrating them in my management report. This report is due end of May and has to contain 10000 words. I'm afraid I will be exceeding that number as I have so stuff to write on. Ron also checked in at the office after three weeks of absence. It was really nice seeing him again as he helped my with some research for K-Bear.
On friday we were invited by the wife of Marc to watch her play in Garrison. The play is called 'The Way of the World' and was a really good play with a lot of energy, humor and activity on the stage. I was glad I accepted the invitation to watch because the cast did an awesome job. Sometimes it was difficult for me to understand the language they were talking as it was in shakespearean english. Afterwards we congratulated the cast and went for a big to eat in the riverview restaurant. Here are some pictures of the play.
On saturday it was 'Cinco de Mayo' which is a famous holiday for the mexicans to commemorate the Mexican army's unlikely victory over the French forces at the Battle of Pueble on May 5, 1862. This day is both commemorated and celebrated by Mexicans and Americans. I was invited by Alexandre to go to the city and join the party - which was going on all day long - on the '230 Rooftop bar' on fifth avenue. There wasn't really a party going on there, so we just had a beer ($9) and were soon on our way to another bar where the beer wasn't that expensive. Here is the magnificent view you had from up there; too bad the weather was cloudy that day.
Afterwards we went to the brewhouse where we had a few drinks and watched the game of FC Barcelona and Espanyol. The game was not important anymore but it was to honor and say goodbye to Pep Guardiola. We also surfed the internet for some nice places to go in the evening and we stumbled upon a nice place near Bryant park where the bear was cheap and the ambiance was good. The party only started at 9pm, so I went looking for a hostel to stay the night and went for dinner to the BXL Belgian Café afterwards.
Near Bryant park there was a new TV-show being shot; a new HBO show called Newsroom. There weren't any famous actors - maybe soon to-be - playing in the show. I'll definitely check out the premiere to see what it is about.
Afterwards we went to the bar where the 'cinco de mayo' party was held. The concept of the party was really cool: you received a piece of paper with a spanish question on it and you had to find the girl with that same question but then in English. Once you have find your match, you received a free drink. The concept was really great, however the age difference was big. We stayed there for about two hours and met a Spanish guy who lived lived in New York.
Afterwards we wandered around looking for a bar to drink some beer and have some fun. We came across several bars, but none of them seemed fun. Eventually we found a place on 7 E36st street between madison and 5th avenue. The pub was called: Downtown Galway Hooker (For those of you who think I went to a strip club, Galway Hooker is a traditional sailing boat used in Galway Bay off the coast of Ireland) which is a nice crowded bar with a good atmosphere and ambiance. Here is a picture of the atmosphere of the bar. It was 3am when we got out of dodge and wanted to see how the most crowded place in New York looked like by night: Times Square. It was really great to walk there at night; except for maybe 100 people it was an empty place. It was soooo great walking there, knowing that during the day you'd be run over by tourists.
It was 4am when I arrived at the hostel and went to bed immediately. The next morning I woke up at 10.30am, as I had to check out at 11am, and I headed directly to Grand Central Station to take the train back to Cold Spring. I spent the rest of the day watching series, catching up on some reading and writing my management report. So another week has gone by here. I begin to realize that my internship is nearing its end, only three more weeks left. But that means three more weeks to enjoy my time here and grasp every opportunity with two hands.
See you next week with more stories of my life here.

2/3 of my internship, one month left!
I also bought tickets to see a New York Red Bull Football game during the weekend. The time-in between was filled with visiting clients, attending meetings and finishing work for school. Last but not least: My blog hit 1500 page views; a number I didn't even expected to hit after only 2 months. So a big thank you to all of you who keep on reading my stories! I really appreciate this!
The warehouse itself was an old place who served as an auction shop. It was a big warehouse with plenty of place to store your labeling machine and products. So it definitely has the potential of becoming something nice. In the garage of the warehouse old cars were parked, which was really nice to see. I also took some pictures.
In the afternoon we drove back to Cold Spring to drop of Marc and headed directly to the city as Marshall had an important meeting to attend to. I met with Marc, the friend of my parents. While I was driving, Marshall was caught up in work and didn't pay attention the road. There is speed limit of 55mph but as there was almost no traffic I was speeding 77mph. Unfortunately there was a cop car on the side of the road, the moment I drove by. Result: I got pulled over.
Luckily I didn't get a speeding ticket for this. This is mostly thanks to Marshall as he was smooth talking the cop by saying that I was an intern from Belgium and that his uncle was a state-trooper as well. Not so far down the road we spotted two Parkway troopers in the bushes. When being pulled over by Parkway troopers, you won't get out without a ticket; even worse they escort you to the closest Police department and make you pay the fine cash.
Once in the city Marshall went to his meeting and I took the subway downtown to the Conrad hotel where Marc was staying. We had a beer in the hotel lobby and made reservation in 'The River Café' under the Brooklyn Bridge. That restaurant was just phenomenal: exquisite food, the most beautiful view on the Manhattan skyline and nice interior of the restaurant! Here are some pictures of that night.
I spent the night at the hotel as I didn't want to take the train back to Cold Spring that late. I also had to take care of the broken iPhone for my cousin on tuesday morning.
Tuesday, 24/04/2012
In the morning we went to the Apple Store on 5th avenue to get my cousin's iPhone 4s replaced. Luckily this wasn't an issue and replaced the phone just like that. Afterwards my friend had to go to a convention, so I thanked him for the lovely dinner and went back on my way.
Marshall had to be in the city as well later that day. So I took the liberty of walking around in the city and visiting the set of 'The Bitter Pill' hoping to spot Jude Law or Catherina Zeta Jones. Luckily for me I got to see Jude Law but unfortunately he didn't have time/didn't want to take any pictures. However I did take a picture of him crossing the road.
In the afternoon I went to a pub to see the CL semi-finals between FC Barcelona and Chelsea. I only could stay for 30 minutes as Marshall was ready to leave the city to drop a client of at Newark airport. Too bad Barcelona didn't go through that night, it hasn't been their season this year.
In the evening we went dining in a Portuguese restaurant in New Jersey. We ordered a delicious sea-food plate for two persons, of which a picture is shown here below.
Wednesday, 25/04/2012
As Marshall was very busy in the office in the morning and had to go New Jersey in the afternoon, me and Marc had to do the radio shows for that day. The first radio show was about sleeping and mattresses, I was so tired that day that I almost fell asleep during that show. Luckily I wasn't snoring and Marc gave a push so that I'd wake up.
In the afternoon I was alone in the office, so I worked on an assignment for school. As I didn't have a car, I had to wait until Marshall got home from his meeting; which arrived at the office around 7pm.
Thursday, 26/04/2012
Again I was left alone at the office. Marc and Marshall had an important meeting in Gloversville, 120miles north of Cold Spring. I was at the office and had to work on a spreadsheet for K-bear and catching up on some school work. In the morning I also had to drive to Fishkill to pick up the parents of Marc and drive them back to Cold Spring. So it was a normal day at the office, which ended around 9pm.
Friday, 27/04/2012
In the morning I had a Skype call scheduled with school to follow up my work performances and to comment on the work I have completed so far. Afterwards my mentor wanted to talk to Marshall concerning his finding on my performances; lucky for me he was and still is very happy having me here.
At 9am we had a three-hour meeting in Monroe with K-bear. It was an interesting an exciting meeting who was also very important for my management report.
In the afternoon we had a lunch scheduled with the person maintaining the Facebook page for BBPools, but this got canceled. So we drove back to the office and worked hard on the Go-to market strategy for K-bear. I also ordered tickets for a soccer match on saturday: New York Red Bulls vs. New England Revolution.
I spent the evening watching a movie and went to sleep as this was a rather tiring work week.
Saturday, 28/04/2012
I wasn't going to go and watch the soccer game by myself, I met with Alexandre at Grand Central Station around 1pm (kickoff was at 3:30pm). The Red Bull Arena is situated in New Jersey, so we had to take the train from Penn Station to Newark Penn Station. From there we walked around trying to find the stadium and failed to find it, so we took a cab there.
The Red Bull arena is really a beautiful stadium, having a capacity of 25.000 people. It was quite an experience going to an American Soccer game. People experience it in a whole other way, as European do. In Belgium for instance, we have the bad tendency to mock the referee, players and supporters of the opposing team. Here this wasn't the case: nobody complaint to the referee, the supporters from the opposing team weren't put in a cage as we are in Belgium, not even that much stewards surrounding them. They stood there amongst the other spectators. It was pretty cool to see.
The game itself was a rather boring game, but the Bulls did win by a nice goal of Thierry Henry. Too bad he got injured after 20minutes in the game. It was a really nice to see how americans experience soccer matches as well as the intensity of the game itself; it isn't that tough. When visiting New York, look for some tickets and go watch a game; It's worth going doing.
I returned back to Cold Spring around 8pm, had a three cheese pizza in the restaurant and went to bed afterwards.
Sunday, 29/04/2012
Sundays are lazy days for me. I slept out, watched some movies, cleaned my apartment, did my laundry, wrote my blog and went for dinner in the evening. Pretty exciting right, hè!
As I'm writing and updating my blog I began to realize how fast time goes here; only one month left for me in the USA. But that's down the road, until then you read more adventures on my blog!
Stay tuned!

Let the second half begin...
Monday, 16/04/2012
When looking through the weather forecasts for that week, I barely realized how warm it was going to be that week. Here is a screenshot of the weather forecast of my iPhone. As you can see, crazy weather. Mark said that this weather is unusual for the time of the year. The year before, the average temperature was 15-16° Celsius. This year on the other hand, the average has increased by 7°C.
That day we had, instead of regular tuesdays, a meeting with B&B Pools and Spa during which we discussed the results of Hubspot and the new postcards. Back at the office, I worked on some school work concerning my management report, while Mark had to leave earlier as he had to pick up his children from school.
Tuesday, 17/04/2012
That day I had to go to the city by myself to attend the 'CO-OP and Condo Expo' in the Hilton Hotel. The expo wasn't really related to Marketing and advertising, moreover it was about Building management, security systems, insurance companies...
This expo was related to Enviro Tech Services (ETS), a client we are dealing with in California specialized in organic degreasers. I had to go in an acquire more information about what's already out there, what is used to clean large apartments and offices.
Afterwards I went for something to eat, McDonalds and headed back home afterwards. By the time I got in Cold Spring it was around 7pm, headed back home went for a delicious 3-cheese Pizza in the restaurant. After diner I watched the movie 'Inside Job' which is a really interesting movie on the scandals in Wall Street, the global crisis in 2009 and the big exuberant salaries of the consulting companies and banking services in Wall Street.
Wednesday, 18/04/2012
Just like any other wednesday we had a radio show hosted by Doctor Richar Huntoon. The show was a telephone phone interview with Susan Koening, about walking properly and how we can all benefit from doing everyday tricks to improve this. Unlike most wednesdays, we only had one radio show to host. So by 11am we were back in the office to prepare for a meeting with K-bear in the afternoon.
The meeting was a very interesting one as we did the goal-setting process for the company. After which we started doing a SWOT-analysis in which we assessed the internal Strengths and Weaknesses as well as the external opportunities and threats. It was a very interesting meeting for me as this is crucial for my Management report.
As the weather was so nice that day, I went for a run in the evening. It was a nice run alongside a new parcours I have mapped out. Afterwards I went for a nice dinner in the restaurant and read in the biography of Steve Jobs afterwards.
Thursday, 19/04/2012
On thursday I was alone at the office, as Mark had a doctor's appointment in the morning and a meeting/interview with clients in the afternoon. That day I also overslept myself a bit, so I checked in later at the office, just in time to receive a call that the meeting Marc had scheduled for this afternoon were cancelled and to be rescheduled.
Nothing special happened that day. I was working on some work for school combined with work for the office. In the evening I went for another run to blow of some steam. I ran 6k in a little more than 30 minutes. I have to say that I felt really great afterwards!
Friday, 20/04/2012
On friday we had our second meeting scheduled with K-Bear at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, in which we finished the goal setting process and continued on the SWOT analysis. Again this was a very interactive meeting where I got to give some input in the conversation. I learned a lot from this meeting and can't wait until the following meeting.
It was a perfect day who didn't end very well as my iPhone 4 fell down on the ground while exiting the car. Result: glass was scattered. An enormously huge bummer! Luckily I went to the city on saturday to get the glass replaced in the Apple store. Here is a photo of the scattered screen.
Saturday, 21/04/2012
I already planned ahead this day on thursday as I, while reading through my tweets, came across an interesting tweet that Californication was filming in the city on saturday. Also FC Barcelona was playing 'El Clasico', a game I wouldn't miss for the world.
I arrived in the city around noon and went straight to the Apple store in Grand Central to check my iPhone. When you have a broken screen, they don't replace the screen on the premises, they just replace your phone with a new one. This service isn't free of course, I had to pay a price of 160$, which btw was totally worth.
Afterwards I headed to the set of Californication to see the legendary Hank Moodie in action. As time was nearing 2pm, I headed to a local pub to see FC Barcelona in action. Too bad of course the game (and probably the title) was won by Real Madrid. It wasn't just the season of FC Barcelona.
During the game Alexandre came to join me to have a few beers and grab a bite to eat. Afterwards we went looking for the set of Californication, and found it eventually. They were shooting the life of Hank Moodie before moving to California. So good news for the fans: there will be a 6th and probably a 7th season.
Once on the set, I got to see the legend myself. And even have a picture with him, which is just awesome!! Without further or due, here are the pictures.
I returned back home around 9pm and went to bed almost immediately as I had to wake up early to pick up Marshall at JFK Int'l Airport at 7am.
Sunday, 22/04/2012
During the night, it was a stormy night: wind was blowing, the sky was pouring rain, and lightning & thunder made the whole picture complete. Luckily for me I slept through all that and woke up fresh and lively at 5u30am. Lucky for me it was a sunday and there was almost no traffic on the road. It took my about 1h30 min to arrive at JFK. I picked up Marshall and we were soon back on our way too Cold Spring. On the road he told me about his week and California, who was jam-packed with meetings. He also let me now he would go back to JFK the same day to pick up a client from California later that day.
Even though it was a sunday and raining as hell, I decided to go with him to the office and afterwards to JFK. Here are some pictures of how rainy and cloudy the day was that day; it was insane. Btw I had to drive in this weather on the New York highways.
We picked the client up around 5pm and drove to Pelham Heights where his uncle lived. Once there we were invited a little snack, which turned out the be a nice dinner. The uncle was Asa Aarons, who is a famous reporter for CBS. The food was really great, so was their hospitality.
Afterwards I drove back to Cold Spring in the pouring rain, on very bad constructed roads with almost no lights on the road. Luckily we made it safe and sound in Cold Spring. It was a rather normal week, but a weekend where I got to see three celebrities!
Stay tuned for more stories!

End of first half at Cold Spring...
|The Bloody Angle
Adjacent the small streets of China Town is also Little Italy. Little Italy used to be a very big neighborhood as there were many immigrated Italians, but now it has only the size of one or two blocks. The sidewalks of Little Italy are filled with small and cozy Italian - what else - restaurants, all of which I took some pictures.
By the time I was done visiting Lower East Side, Chinatown and Little Italy it was already nearing 7pm: time for me to get some good MacDonald's in the neighborhood. After which I met with Alexandre and Alexandra at their place to drink some beers before heading downtown. The apartment they are living in is really nice. It's a shared apartment where they only pay 400 & 600 dollars a month, which is a really nice offer to live in New York.
The party was held in a night club called 'Pranna', located on the junction of Madison Avenue and 23th street. We had a really good time as we didn't have to pay for drinks or entrance. So it was a cheap night out, which was just awesome. Here are some pictures from that night.
Once back at their apartment around 7am, I slept on a small yoga mat, which was rather uncomfortable but the good thing is that I made it through the night. The next morning we woke up around 1pm, got washed and dressed and went for a breakfast in Le Pain Quotidien.
After breakfast we both went our ways: Alexandra & Alexandre were heading back to their apartment to sleep and I headed back to Cold Spring to sleep as well.
This was also the end a hell of weekend and a crazy week. More stories to come next week!
Stay tuned!
